Topic: RE: How's everyone doing??
What an awesome bunch of losers you all are!!! I am doing well and I feel great. Down from 285 to 167!! Only 17 more pounds to my goal of 150. I was wearing a size 26/28 and just bought size 14 pants and medium shirt!
One bit of bad news. This Tuesday (June 3) I have to go for surgery. I am having a laparoscopy to repair what my surgeon feels is an internal hernia and to take care of some scar tissue/adhesions I may have as a result of the surgery or the abscess I got after the surgery. It's ambulatory, so I will be going home the same day. Wish me luck and keep up the great work!
Hugs,
Lisa

Onederful Onederland! On May 14th, I officially entered Onderland. I have gone from an all time high weight of 365 pounds to 199 pounds. A size 30/32 to 16/18. I haven't been this small since high school. I feel so good.
Still, I've been struggling a little. Lately I've been having a bit of a hard time sticking to the diet. I've been straying with maybe eating a little too much dinner or having a "real" candy here and there or a couple of chocolate cookies. I could smack myself.
Maybe a few friendly smacks from some of you guys.
Anyway, I've updated my profile with some new photos and changed my avatar. Take a look.

Congratulations to all you losers!
I don't post here very often either, but as I approach my eight month surgiversary I have to share how glad I am that I had the surgery and changed my life! I am down 75 pounds and still 25 pounds from goal, but oh, so happy to be losing! I've gone from a size 26 to a 16 and can't believe the difference in the way I feel. So much more energy! I've been slacking off on my exercise, too, but seeing the results those of you who have been exercising more are getting will motivate me to get back to it now that the weather is finally getting more spring-like!
Happy Surgiversary to you all!

Congratulations on reaching your goal. That must feel great. I've never been able to reach any of my weight goals in my life, and I'm about 24 pounds away from mine now, which is actually the closest I've ever been to goal. Hoping to get there by my one year anniversary.

I hit goal last month and am about 8.5lbs under right now. I weighed in at 149.5 lbs for the past 3 weeks which is a little lower than I want to be.
I'm 5'9" and a size 6, which is crazy to me. I feel great. The loose skin thing isn't too horrible, but my boobs are *so* sad. I was working out 3-4 days a week, but haven't been in much lately (we're selling our house so that's taking up all my time).
